How we handle non-slip bath coating in Skippers Hill
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can typically put it right.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Skippers Hill: your questions answered
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Are there extra charges for Skippers Hill?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Skippers Hill and the rest of East Sussex. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How we price non-slip bath coating
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Skippers Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
